“I think magic really went away for a while. Up until recently dreams seemed very pedestrian and I don’t think dreams are really like that. It is time to celebrate the world, colour, life, and liberty. I don’t know if you can directly relate that to LSD experiments, as we’re not coming from there, we just want to be free and have a good time. We want to change the world”
